Tales of Gurt & Harry

Tales of Gurt & Harry (Pickles & Tickles) There once was a tart child named Gurt Who sucked sour balls ‘till it hurt A green apple pucker And dreams of her sucker Made naughty Gurt act very curt. Now Gurt’s brother was named Harry Larry his back was so hairy it was scary When he entered a room They all cried BABOON! And they ran round like loons or canaries?

Deb, Brian says there are many other rhyme forms deemed acceptable for sonnets. Just choose the one that works best for you. I consider him the authority on such concepts and really miss his presence here. Love, Carolyn

Looks like you had a lot of fun with this limerick, Deb. Best wishes in the contest. Soup Mail returned. Check out the sonnet example given on the Soup under "Forms of Poetry." The rhyme scheme you mentioned is an English sonnet. There are multiple forms of sonnets (from Brian S.) and the example here is the one I emulated. Love, Carolyn

talk about forcing a rhyme. heeheehee. but it's all good with limericks and PD should love this. (or maybe it's somebody else's contest. I can't keep track anymore) Yeah, I tend to not care about haiku rules if the judges don't care how we do them. I have written very few I would ever consider even TRYING to submit to a magazine. I just think they ae fun to do, whether correctly or not! Hope that answers your question, MS inquiring mind!!haha Luv, Andrea
